This book reconstructs for the first time the history of photography from the invention of the daguerreotype around 1840 and the reactions it provoked to digital photography at the end of the 20th century as a theoretical history.
This includes both the relevant theoretical positions (from Barthes, Derrida, Foucault, Moholy-Nagy, Emerson, Stieglitz to Rodchenko, Hausmann, Baudrillard, Flusser and many others) as well as a large number of texts whose theoretical content only becomes apparent upon closer inspection.
